BUSINESS PROSPECTS IN BRAZIL.
The Journal de Commerce. does not
take very roseate view of the business
situation in that quarter of the world. 1t
writes: awe should be happy certainly
to be able to announce near
and thriving future for the country,
but although in the ornament, so
long clouded, q brighter spot has appear
ed, we do not consider hat Immediately
the smiling day of budget equilibrium, of
uninterrupted progress, of exchange at
par and of steady commercial improve
ment will appear on the horizon. Far
from US to be soothed b. hops, let US
prepare for the struggle, which will be
severe, between necessities, always
greater and more urgent, and
the reduction of our purchasing
power with which we are threa ened
by the very deficient coming crop
of coffee. In fact, advlces from all the
vast coffee zone of the provinces of Rio
de JaDelro and 8. Paulo do not authorize
US to count IN the coming season upon
more than one-half of fair crop. The
result of this extraordinary scarcity would
be highly disastrous did not the higher
prices which the article will necessarily
attain compensate in part for the loss.
WheteVer may be the advance, however,
the Increased value can never offset the
difference arising from the reduced guam
tity.''
